1 Rhizopoda

2 Amoebas, Actinopods, and Foraminiferans Use pseudopodia (cellular extensions) to sometimes feed and for movement Most are heterotrophs Some are symbiotic Not much known about their phylogeny

3 Rhizopods (Amoebas) Unicellular Use pseudopodia for movement and to feed Reproduce asexually through different forms of cell division Live in freshwater, salt water, and soil

4 Actinopods (Heliozoans and Radiolarians) Use a slender version of pseudopodia called axopodia Most Heliozoans live in fresh water Most Radiolarians live in salt water heliozoan radiolarian

5 Foraminiferans Almost all marine Named for their porous shells Pseudopodia extend through pores Pseudopodia help with swimming, shell formation, and feeding
